Customer service evaluator scam

On January 13, 2014 I received a letter in the mail from Kroger stores company, indicating that I have been excepted as a customer service evaluator. Inside the envelope was a check written out to me for $1999.14. The letter indicated that to activate the check I needed to go to [email protected] Once the check was activated I was to withdraw the entire amount keeping $350 for myself. It would then ask that I can generate my assignment by going to www.Krogerstoresco.com, but I could not generate the assignment untill I had cash in hand. The letter was signed by director of operations Mark shuffler, yet the check was signed by a Scott M.Henderson this letter indicates they are powered by Walmart,Kmart rightaid, Kroger's,Sears, Home Depot,Office Depot,Costco,and Best Buy; all which looked as if they had been cut and pasted at the bottom of the page. Research on this exact website scam guard.com, showed that this is exactly a scam someone, for some people who will take your money and not give A care whether they put you in financial hardship or not. Please be aware that it does look like an actual check drawn off at the PNC Bank. The letter it self does come with the Kroger logo from Jeanette Pennsylvania but no address only a telephone number of 724-374-3974 and an email address at [email protected] WARNING!!! The check is not real and should never be cashed!!!!

Consumer Service Evaluator

Received letter in mail with a check inside and letter of explanation as to what it was for. I was deposit to deposit the check . Keep $350 for my pay. withdraw remaining balance and check web site for my first trial assignment. You were not supposed to check out the assignment until you had the money in hand. I deposited the check and waited for it to clear. I was informed by my bank that it was a fake check and charged $12.00 for a returned item. I never did check out the assignment as I never was able to with draw the money.Unlike some people I do not have enough in my account to go ahead and withdraw the balance and follow instructions. This way I only lost the $12. that the bank made in fees.
